Yesterday was my birthday and it was one of the best yet. Just being in Seattle now with our own house is gift enough for me. But still, Bruce and Nick got up early and headed out to bring me back breakfast at our new favorite, Bakery Nouveau and some gorgeous flowers from the Admiral Bird . What more could a girl ask for? A chicken... You can take the girl out of the country but you can't take the country out of the girl. What can I say? There were too many things to consider to do on a typical Saturday in Seattle. This is part of my new Seattle life so I might as well start getting use it. Some of the activities included our neighborhood West Seattle Summer Fest, or the Greenlake Milk Carton Derby which has always been a fun thing to go to which I haven't been for years , the Seattle Tilth Chicken Coop and Urban Farm Tour, or the International Beer Festival with 220 beers to sample. As you can guess...
